Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 The log you attached is incomplete. Always
 [https://guide.macports.org/chunked/project.html#project.tickets.prerequisites
 clean and try again] before attaching a log.

 I did not say libapreq2 was not compatible with perl5.18; I only said it
 had no p5.18 subport. This is because the last time the p5-libapreq2 port
 was touched was 16 months before the perl5.18 port existed in MacPorts. I
 do not know if libapreq2 would work with perl5.18. It cannot be tested
 because p5-libapreq2 depends on mod_perl2 and as was already [comment:8
 discussed above] mod_perl2 does not build with perl5.18. Also,
 p5-libapreq2 has dependencies on p5-extutils-xsbuilder, p5-parse-
 recdescent, and p5-tie-ixhash, which do not have p5.18 subports either. I
 expect this is again because nobody has tried, rather than because of an
 actual incompatibility. Remember that we have 1000 perl ports, 70% of
 which do not have a maintainer. I have added p5.18 subports to these perl
 modules now in r118327, r118328, r118329; they built fine, but I did not
 test whether they work correctly, because I don't know how.
